Hi,
Just change the [HttpGet] to [HttpPost] and function name to Index.
public class ProductSearchBlockController : BlockController<ProductSearchBlock>
{
private readonly IRepository<Products> _productsRepository;
public ProductSearchBlockController(IRepository<Products> productsRepository)
{
_productsRepository = productsRepository;
}
public override ActionResult Index(ProductSearchBlock currentBlock)
{
var viewModel = new ProductSearchBlockViewModel();
viewModel.Products = _productsRepository.All().ToList();
return PartialView(viewModel);
}
[HttpPost]
public override ActionResult Index(ProductSearchBlock currentBlock)
{
var viewModel = new ProductSearchBlockViewModel();
viewModel.Products = _productsRepository.All().OrderBy(p => p.Price).ToList();
return PartialView(viewModel);
}
}

This is my controller I have a form in the block that hits the OrderBy action however what is returned is the partial file not the page with the block. How can achieve this?
I want to pass in sorted products in the block. When a button is clicked.
